With fresh water becoming an increasingly precious commodity, and the prospect of becoming a source of the same type of political instability that is now associated with energy shortages, sustainable use of water resources is becoming more and more important. One of those uses is for irrigation. Sustainable Irrigation Management, Technologies and Policies IV addresses various aspects of irrigation. It includes not only the scientific and technical aspects of the management of water resources, but also matters the economics and policy aspects. Containing papers presented at the Fourth International Conference on the subject, the book covers the topics such as; Irrigation management; Irrigation modelling; Irrigation systems and planning; Economic incentives and instruments; Groundwater resources and contamination; Climate change effects; Water trade; Economics of irrigation; Governance for sustainable irrigation; International issues; Drainage; Water quality and remediation; Water Re-use. -- back cover

Air Pollution is widespread and a growing challenge to the international community, with known impacts on local and global health and the environment. Governments face a need to balance concern over these impacts with maintaining or improving economic development. Science is the key to identifying the nature and scale of air pollution impacts and is essential in the formulation of effective policies and regulations. Our knowledge of the fundamental science of air pollution and its application continues to improve, enabling us to better predict, assess and mitigate the air pollution implications to local, regional, national and international economic systems.This book contains papers presented at the nineteenth meeting in a series of annual International Conferences dealing with Modelling, Monitoring and Management of Air Pollution. The papers deal with advances in a wide variety of topics, including: Air Pollution Modelling; Air Quality Management; Aerosols and Particles; Emissions Studies; Global and Regional; Economics of Air Pollution Control; Health Effects.

Forest fires appear as a complex major problem, which is way beyond the simple relationship with climate, at the origin of many environmental social and economical consequences. The loss of habitats, erosion and CO2 emissions are examples of the ecological consequences, while the impact on human health, agricultural and tourist activity as well as regional labour market are examples of social, economical and ecological effects
